Elvis Kin Dies in Shootout

A sheriff who was a cousin of Elvis Presley
was killed in a shootout early today that also left a suspect
dead.

The gun battle began after a man fled from a police roadblock
and pushed a woman, nude and bound with tape, from his car,
authorities said. The man wrecked his car, and was later cornered
in a shed at a home.

Lee County Sheriff Harold Ray Presley, 52, shoved a deputy out
of the way and was apparently shot several times but returned fire,
killing Billy Ray Stone, 53, authorities said.
